Short Term Goal: Short-Change Capitalism

Following on the heels of the West iPod Give Away Debacle (it's now been quoted on Library Stuff-- it's a debacle) I have decided to set a new short term goal for myself.

Get as many free iPods as humanely possible.

Now, you may say to yourself "Self, what the hell is Clair going to do with more iPods? She already has the perfectly functional iPod Nano in lovely square that was around for all of one year before Apple replaced it with the long sticky looking one?"

And to you I answer "Walk around and feel bad ass."

Imagine-- one iPod for work music, one for leisure time, and another for audio-books/podcasts/class notes! The luxury, man! The sheer unadulterated luxury!

West is giving away a free iPod shuffle to the first 100 people to show up for their "LOOKIE! IT'S NEW!" breakfast that I am happily attending (and showing up twenty minute early for). Additionally, the lovely Sarah Glassmeyer is giving away the iPod that started all of this bruhaha, and I am firmly entered in that drawing.

Soon I shall have at least one free iPod from West. It shall be full of nothing but my large MB audiobook files, and sit prettily in my bag waiting to be used when the mood and fancy strikes me. And lo, it shall be amazing.
